IN 1979, Fr. Joseph A. Galdon, SJ. edited the book 'Essays on the Filipino Novel in English' which was published by Ateneo de Manila University Press. It is a compilation of critical essays that were first published in the respected journal Philippine Studies, which Ateneo still publishes every quarter. The book gathered various essays on the Philippine novel in English from 1921 to 1975.
In the spirit of the times, Father Galdon listed the themes of the Philippine novel as discussed by the novelist and National Artist for Literature, N.V.M. Gonzalez.
The first theme is the barrio and the city; the second is the theme of Rizal's hope of the Fatherland, which telescopes freedom, integrity, social justice and the upliftment of the masses. The third theme is that of the Lost Eden, or the longing for a pre-colonial condition that is forever lost, and the fourth is the theme of illusion versus reality.
